The Faerie Trees. Britain's trees are under unprecedented threat from new pests and diseases. We are asking people to help us identify trees that might have problems - particularly ash, oak, horse chestnut, pine or spruce trees - so we can find out more or take appropriate action. ( http://bit.ly/HEnNAE ) Oak, Ash, and Thorn - These three trees are called the Faerie Triad because groves which include all three of these trees are places where you can see the faeries. All three are Druid sacred trees and part of the Celtic Tree Calendar which is a Lunar Calendar of 13 months, each 28 days in length. Each month of the Celtic Lunar calendar bears the name of a tree, which also stands for one of the consonants in the Celtic 'tree alphabet'. It is terribly bad luck to cut down a faerie tree or damage it in any way, as it is said that you will never know a good nights sleep again for the rest of your life. Unless you are a friend you should also stay away from the trees at full moon because if you hear music coming from the trees a faerie kingdom is celebrating the full moon and if you touch the tree you may be swallowed up and kept by the Faeries forever. Original Poem Oak & Ash & Thorn - The Faerie Trees c. Celestial Elf 2013 ( http://bit.ly/194SIMt ) Faeries are also known as Sprites, the Sidhe, Gentlefolk, Little People, Elementals, Nature Spirits and more. Forerunners of our modern eco-warriors, faeries regulate the relationship between humans and nature. It is vital to not take more from nature than you need lest you would upset the natural harmony they protect. To learn more about Faeries and the Faerie Faith read The Faery Faith by Serena Roney-Dougal ( https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/318082357 ) GleAwGescyrrPan the White Dragon symbolizes purity and wisdom. White Dragons are associated with the light and righteousness, in general Dragons represent the primal forces in nature and the universe. A Goblin is a small, swarthy, malicious being. They sometimes appear in the shape of animals which appropriately reflects their bestial nature. They are the thieves and villains of Faerie. Trolls, frequently observed performing a curious lop-sided dance called 'Henking' gives rise to their name in some parts as Henkies. It is also thought by some that the Trows of Orkney and Shetland are 'shrunken' version of the monstrous, gigantic Norse trolls brought by the Norwegians when they settled these regions.( http://bit.ly/HDFiAB ) Toad's signify a connection to Earth, Fortune and Fertility, they also are a connection to the Otherworld, serving as guardians for those who passed over. In earlier times the services of Toadmen were employed on farms to help with breeding and other farming matters. It's likely that they drew their 'powers' from an esoteric knowledge of herb-lore. Woodwose Greene is a woodland spirit who protects wild animals and the forestsand is sometimes depicted with a tail, hooves, and horns comparable to the faun of classical mythology, - another manifestation of the Green Man, Guardian and God of vegetation and plant life. A person who befriends a Woodwose can learn the secrets of earth magic, from protection of creatures to guardianship of the forests. Farmers and shepherds often used to make pacts with these spirits to protect their crops and sheep.
